Issue/Introduction

This article describes how to license PGP Command Line 10 through a proxy server.

 

Resolution

If the Internet access of the system hosting PGP Command Line is via an HTTP proxy connection, you can still license your copy of PGP Command Line directly; you simply need to add the necessary proxy information.

Use --license-authorize to license PGP Command Line via a proxy server.

Example:

pgp --license-authorize --license-name "Alice Cameron" --license-organization "Example Corporation" --license-number "aaaaa-bbbbb-ccccc-ddddd-eeeee-fff" --proxy-server "proxyserver.example.com" --proxy-username "acameron" --proxy-passphrase 'a_cameron1492sailedblue' --license-email "[email protected]"

When authorizing a PGP Command Line license through a proxy server, the --proxy-server is required but the following options are only necessary when your proxy server requires authentication.

 

• --proxy-username <Username> Where <Username> is a valid username on the proxy server.
• --proxy-passphrase <Passphrase> Where <Passphrase> is the passphrase for the username you entered.
